Celebrating Billy Joel – A World Class Tribute to America’s Piano Man: 50 Years of Billy
In a New York State of Mind? Has it been The Longest Time since you’ve heard Piano Man or Uptown Girl? Celebrating Billy Joel – America’s Piano Man will be paying tribute to one of America’s most prolific and beloved songwriters on their 2022 tour, 50 Years of Billy.

One of the foremost songwriters of the 20th century, Billy Joel’s music is beloved around the world. Eclectic, but always uniquely recognizable, his songs tell stories to the backdrop of his virtuosic piano playing. This show celebrates the songs and the style of Billy Joel, evoking the energy and passion of live performances in his 70s/80s pomp.
Playing international smash hits such as Just The Way You Are, New York State of Mind, Uptown Girl, Vienna, Scenes from an Italian Restaurant, Piano Man and many, many more; this superb group of multi-instrumentalists featuring renowned vocalists and piano players Rob Stringer and Alex Dee pay tribute to one of American music’s greats.
The goal of this session is to allow participants the opportunity to explore the importance of a nurturing fatherhood environment for children, mothers, and fathers while children are in care. Through interactive discussion, participants will share current practices, discover the benefits of engaging the men in early care, and design strategies all programs can adopt.
